    Not to mention sleeping on the ground since the state of California was given no advance notice of their activation.

    Trump Announces Plans To Bring Back Fort ROBERT E. LEE

    As is often the case, he didn't have a clue what he was talking about.

    And they were handling it fine. It was not out of control as Trump claims.

    Trump Announces Plans To Bring Back Fort ROBERT E. LEE

    From the Twitters: Donald Trump just announced he will restore the names of Fort Robert E. Lee and six other military bases honoring Confederate traitors. Because nothing says patriotism like honoring enemies of the United States.

    Death Pool Update: Brian Wilson at 82...

    https://twitter.com/RandysVinylTap/status/1932846795471872098 From Randy Bachman of the Guess Who: Oh gee...We say goodbye to Brian Wilson. I’ve know the Beach boys since the mid 60’s and have done lots of shows with them. They were the American answer to the Beatles. They wowed everyone with the songs, structures, vocals harmonies. The sunshine sound. I remember when Brian decided to not go on the road anymore but continued to write incredible music. They were like family. When Carl passed it was like losing a brother and it feels the same today. They are still going today with their incredible legacy with Bruce Johnston and Mike Love. We lost one of the greatest composers and messengers who took jazz harmony, put it to a Chuck Berry beat and made a new genre of music. Some of the best singles in the world. Dennis, Carl and Brian are all together now. Other worlds to sing in. #RIP #BrianWilson #TheBeachBoys

    I predicted this before the election and said that the Latinos who were voting for Trump would regret it later, big time, and I was right. As I said last year, people will be swept up in this deportation net just because they look Latino (even if they don't have an accent). Latinos in L.A. are seeing friends, neighbors, co-workers and relatives arrested who are here legally (and ICE, Homan and Trump don't care).

    It's not what most thought they were voting for, Trump said during the campaign that he would go after the worst criminals first, the murderers and the rapists. Instead, ICE is going after the low hanging fruit, the safe arrests of those working construction sites or showing up for scheduled government appointments.
  14. And he, of all people, is complaining about personal insults? This is the same guy I put on ignore because he kept calling me PISS CLAM and a RUMP SWAB.

    I stand corrected. There is some truth to what you say, however, looking into this further: "Karen Bass, currently the Mayor of Los Angeles, has faced scrutiny regarding accusations of being a communist or having strong ties to communism. What Karen Bass has said: She has explicitly denied being a communist or a socialist. She has stated that she has belonged to the Democratic Party her entire life. Why the accusations exist: Past association with the Venceremos Brigade: Bass participated in trips to Cuba in the 1970s with the Venceremos Brigade, an organization that supported the Cuban Revolution and was considered by some to be pro-Cuba and socialist/Marxist-affiliated. Bass stated she was 19 on her first trip and compared the house-building work she did there to that of Habitat for Humanity. She noted that the trips provided an opportunity for activists to connect."

    Wait, what??????????? Bass is a known Communist? I think I missed that "news" when he ran for Mayor. You wouldn't by chance have a link or some sort of proof to back that claim up?

    Once again for those who missed it: The people who are looting and burning are not the same people who are protesting peacefully (I don't agree they should block the freeway). As in 2020 in L.A. with the George Floyd protests, a criminal element came out after the protests had ended for the day and the protesters had gone home, that was when the burning and looting started.

    Oh, please. Don't deflect from what we are discussing. Who is on the left is justifying using violence in these protests. Who?
